Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an apparatus for automatic control of a friction clutch in a vehicle.
  • an actuator is combined with a friction clutch, allowing the clutch to engage and disengage automatically.
  • a disengaged clutch plate In the engaging process of a friction clutch by automatic control, a disengaged clutch plate is first moved towards an engine flywheel rapidly while varying a clutch stroke position until a clutch face meets a flywheel surface, and then the clutch plate has to be moved slowly transmitting power to the flywheel with slip. Finally, the clutch plate is stopped to move, and the clutch is engaged completely without slip.
  • partially engaged clutch stroke position means the position at which the clutch face meets the flywheel surface to start the power transmission with slip.
  • An object of the present invention is to always specify a partially engaged clutch stroke position which changes with wearing of a friction clutch, whereby fine engagement control in partially engaged position determination is continuously enabled regardless of wearing of the clutch.
  • the present invention provides a method of specifying a partially engaged clutch stroke position for a friction clutch engaged and disengaged by a clutch actuator under automatic control and also by driver's manual operation, comprising determining an initial partially engaged clutch stroke position and an initial clutch stroke position at which fluid pressure in the clutch actuator reaches a prescribed value, so as to obtain a difference between the initial partially engaged clutch stroke position and initial clutch stroke position attaining the prescribed fluid pressure value prior to initiation of automatic clutch control, detecting a current clutch stroke position at which the fluid pressure in the clutch actuator reaches the prescribed value while the automatic control is being performed, calculating a value by adding the difference to the detected current clutch stroke position, and using the value as a current partially engaged stroke position of the clutch in the automatic control operation.
  • the initial partially engaged clutch stroke position may be determined when a vehicle is assembled in a factory.
  • the initial clutch stroke position may also be determined immediately upon completion of vehicle assembling.
  • the difference between the initial partially engaged clutch stroke position and initial clutch stroke position does not change in spite of wearing of the friction clutch.
  • both of the partially engaged clutch stroke position and clutch stroke position attaining the predetermined fluid pressure changes with the wearing of the clutch. Therefore, by calculating the sum of the above mentioned difference and a current clutch stroke position attaining the predetermined fluid pressure value, it is possible to obtain a current partially engaged clutch stroke position.
  • All of the clutch stroke positions may be determined according to output voltages from a clutch stroke sensor.
  • the predetermined value of fluid pressure may be a value which causes a clutch plate to start disengaging from a flywheel of an engine.
  • the apparatus provides the possibility of diagnosing abnormalities in determining a partially engaged clutch stroke position of a friction clutch comprising determining an initial partially engaged clutch stroke position and an initial clutch stroke position at which fluid pressure in a clutch actuator used to disengage the friction clutch under automatic control reaches a prescribed value, so as to determine a difference between the two clutch stroke positions prior to initiation of operation of the automatic control, and determining an automatic clutch system to be abnormal when the determined difference does not fall within a predetermined range.
  • This abnormality diagnosis may be performed before a vehicle is marketed.
  • the initial partially engaged clutch stroke position may be determined based on an output voltage from a clutch stroke sensor. If the clutch stroke sensor malfunctions and does not provide an accurate value, the difference between the determined two clutch stroke positions may have an abnormal value.
  • a clutch 1 is a friction clutch, and is configured in such a manner that it may be engaged and disengaged manually with the aid of manual means of engagement and disengagement 2, or automatic means of engagement and disengagement (clutch actuator) 3.
  • the drawing illustrates the normal state, where the clutch 1 is engaged and neither of the above means is activated.
  • a clutch fork 4 of the clutch 1 executes strokes in the directions of engagement and disengagement by virtue of the reciprocal movement of a slave cylinder 5 acting as a fluid pressure cylinder.
  • the oil pressure (fluid pressure) which provides the clutch engaging/disengaging force is supplied to the slave cylinder 5 from an intermediate cylinder 6.
  • This intermediate cylinder 6 switches between oil 1 pressure supplied from a master cylinder 7 and oil pressure supplied from a source of oil pressure 8 (i,e., selects one of these two oil pressure), and feeds the oil pressure to the slave cylinder 5 in accordance to the selected oil pressure.
  • the master cylinder 7 generates oil pressure in response to the degree of depression (degree of operation) of a clutch pedal 9, and feeds it to the intermediate cylinder 6.
  • the source of oil pressure 8 includes a motor 10, an oil pressure pump 11, a check valve 32, electromagnetic valves 30, 31 and a relief valve 13.
  • the motor 10 and the electromagnetic valves 30, 31 are driven and controlled by an electronic control unit 14 so that the supply and release of oil pressure take place in a desired manner.
  • These elements form an oil pressure piping system, and the oil which is a working fluid is stored in an oil tank 15.
  • the electromagnetic valves 30, 31 are "duty" controlled by the control unit 14. In this particular embodiment, these valves are of the normal-close type, i.e., they are closed when "off”.
  • the electromagnetic valves 30, 31 are used for the purpose of engaging and disengaging the clutch 1, or for emitting oil from the slave cylinder 5.
  • the electromagnetic valves 30, 31 have flow channels of differing diameter. The clutch engagement rate is changed successively by the way in which these electromagnetic valves 30, 31 are controlled.
  • the relief valve 13 is a fail-safe provision which opens if the oil pressure rises abnormally, and is normally closed.
  • the clutch stroke sensor 19 is a potentiometer which is operatively engaged by the clutch fork 4 by way of a link 36.
  • the clutch stroke sensor 19 outputs an electric voltage V which is proportional 1 to the clutch stroke, and more specifically outputs an electric voltage the size of which increases in proportion to the degree of disengagement of the clutch.
  • V an electric voltage
  • the clutch stroke sensor 19 At the outlet of the intermediate cylinder 6, provided is an oil pressure switch 33, which switches from “off” to “on” if the detected oil pressure rises and reaches a set value. Signals from the sensor 19 and the switch 33 are transmitted to the control unit 14.
  • the transmission 20 is engaged mechanically to means of shift operation (shift lever device) 21 with the aid of a link, wire cable or similar means, and is capable of shift position (gear position) change in line with shift lever operations.
  • the means of shift operation 21 has a shift knob 22 which is capable of slight oscillation in relation to a knob lever 23, the oscillation causing a contact in the shift knob to engage and generate a prescribed shift position change signal.
  • the transmission 20 is also fitted with a shift stroke sensor 34, select stroke sensor 35 and neutral switch 24, which serve to detect gear positions. Signals from these sensors and this switch are input to the control unit 14.
  • the control unit 14 is notified by signals from the shift stroke sensor 34 and select stroke sensor 35 that the gear position (shift position) of the transmission 20 has been changed, and it begins to engage the clutch 1. More specifically, it controls the electromagnetic valves 30, 31 in the optimum manner in accordance with engine running conditions, vehicle driving conditions and the will of the driver. Thus, as the broken arrows show, the oil pressure is released from the slave cylinder 5, the clutch fork 4 is returned, and the clutch 1 is engaged at the optimum speed. In this manner, the control unit 14, source of oil pressure 8, intermediate cylinder 6 and slave cylinder 5 constitute in combination the automatic means of engagement and disengagement (clutch actuator) 3.
  • the driver can switch between manual and automatic clutch engagement/disengagement modes with the aid of a switch 25 which is provided inside the vehicle compartment.
  • the clutch 1 is engaged and disengaged by the feedback control while observing the actual clutch strokes detected by the clutch stroke sensor 19.
  • the maximum and minimum limit voltages Vmax, Vmin at which the clutch 1 clearly diverges from the permitted stroke range are stored in the memory.
  • the clutch stroke sensor 19 is judged to be abnormal if the output voltage V exceeds Vmax or drops below Vmin.
  • the proper usage range is the comparatively high-voltage area A when the clutch 1 is new.
  • the proper voltage range for the clutch stroke sensor 19 decreases little by little as wear on the clutch 1 progresses. For instance, the area A is shifted to the area B as illustrated in the drawing.
  • the maximum and minimum limit voltages Vmax, Vmin are set at values divorced from a current proper range in some instances.
  • the lower limit for the range A is far from the lower limit Vmin for abnormality determination.
  • the clutch stroke sensor output voltage V at which the oil pressure switch 33 is activated when the clutch stroke sensor 19 is normal is programmed into the control unit 14 as the reference value (P 1 , P 2 in Fig.1).
  • the control unit 14 calculates the temporary abnormal values on the disengaging side (V 1X , V 2X in Fig.1) and on the engaging side (V 1Y , V 2Y in Fig.1) by adding and subtracting the two different values (X, Y in Fig.1) to and from the reference value.
  • the clutch stroke sensor 19 is judged to be abnormal if its output voltage V attains these upper and lower limit values (V 1X , V 2X and V 1Y , V 2Y ).
  • the activation point of the oil pressure switch 33 (the pressure at which the oil pressure switch 33 turns on) is set to a value of when the clutch fork 4 is about to move for clutch disconnection as the outlet pressure of the intermediate cylinder 6 (the internal pressure of the slave cylinder 5) is raised slightly from the clutch engaged condition. This corresponds to a play. Clutch wear causes the position of the clutch fork 4 when the clutch is engaged to diverge towards the engagement side, as the imaginary lines in Fig.2 illustrate, and the range of use of the sensor 19 also diverges. On the other hand, the activation point (pressure value) of the oil pressure switch 33 is constant irrespective of clutch wear. This nature can be utilized: the sensor output at the oil switch activation point is taken as a criterion to demonstrate clutch wear. By determining abnormal levels on the engagement and disengagement sides in accordance with this, it is possible to diagnose clutch stroke sensor abnormalities in a suitable manner without regard to clutch wear.
  • the following is the method which is used to specify a clutch stroke position in the partially engaged position of the clutch 1 (partially engaged clutch stroke position) when the clutch 1 is new, namely when the vehicle has just come off the factory line or immediately after the clutch has been replaced or otherwise renewed.
  • the partially engaged clutch stroke position is set according to the so-called second learning method.
  • the vehicle's parking brake is engaged and the vehicle brought to a standstill.
  • the engine is kept in an idling condition.
  • the clutch 1 is then engaged gradually automatically from the disengaged position.
  • the revolution speed of the engine drops a little.
  • the control unit 14 learns the clutch stroke sensor output voltage V as the initial or actual partially engaged clutch stroke position Q 1 .
  • control unit 14 learns the reference level P 1 when the oil pressure switch 33 first turns on (manually or automatically).
  • the clutch 1 becomes subject to wear, as a result of which the partially engaged clutch stroke position also changes. Now it becomes impossible to use the previous value Q 1 , and so the partially engaged clutch stroke position is renewed in the following manner.
  • the reference value changes in line with wear to the clutch 1, and consequently a new partially engaged clutch stroke value Q 2 is determined by adding the difference R 1 to a new reference value, e.g., P 2 in the range B in Fig. 1. Again, the control unit 14 learns this. In this manner it is possible to specify the current partially engaged clutch position in accordance with clutch wear.
  • the fluid pressure need not be oil pressure.
  • the present embodiment has been described as applied to a semi-automatic clutch device, but the invention may also be applied to a fully automatic clutch device, or if necessary to a manual clutch device.
  • the reference values may also be determined in accordance with master cylinder pressure.
